The right connection creates lasting relationships.
I am genuinely thrilled to accompany you on your relationship journey, which aims to cultivate a deeper and more meaningful connection between you and your partner.
Let me share a glimpse into my life to help forge a connection as you choose a provider during this delicate and transformative time. I grew up in the vibrant city of Yonkers, New York, where I observed many individuals navigating difficult circumstances, including myself. I was raised with my father and stepmother, surrounded by seven lively siblings.
Our home was a constant blend of laughter, conflict, and lessons learned as my parents faced financial hardships and the intricacies of maintaining a marriage. I had a front-row seat as I watched my parents face challenges while balancing their roles, making time for self-care, and strengthening their relationship amidst life’s demands. Despite these difficulties, my family deeply appreciated quality time together – our living room often echoed with the sounds of family dinners, spirited game nights, and lively cookouts.
Ultimately, they chose their individual happiness, which sparked my curiosity about relationship development and shaped my life’s work.

This curiosity led me to break barriers as the first member of my family to graduate with a master’s degree, receiving my degree from Fayetteville State University. My studies ignited an interest in psychology and sociology, which deepened my understanding of how people interact with one another and laid the foundation for understanding human attachment and relational dynamics.
With over 15 years of dedicated experience in social work, I am committed to empowering couples with essential self-discovery skills and fostering profound connections built on acceptance, trust, and reciprocity.
My therapeutic approach is grounded in Emotional-Focused Therapy, a theory that empowers individuals and couples as they navigate the complexities of their relationships and various life transitions. My ultimate goals are to elevate your intimate connections and empower your relationships by nurturing secure emotional bonds.
This is your transformative journey. My role during this journey is to equip you with the right tools to help you navigate your relationship effectively.
When I’m not in therapy sessions…
…you’ll find me spending time with my fiancé and two kids. We love exploring and creating lasting memories through travel, nature walks, dance contests, and cozy movie nights. My fiancé and I prioritize intentional time together while also ensuring personal growth. We’re both adventurous and enjoy surprising each other with small, meaningful gestures.
I have a soft spot for high heels and vibrant makeup, and my fiancé loves adding to my collection! I enjoy surprising my fiancé with fun activities, from cooking contests to board games and creative projects like painting and building. We embrace our different love languages and nurture our curiosity to stay connected, especially with children, who can be particularly challenging. Currently, my fiancé is even learning how to do my makeup – yes, my makeup!
When not with my family, I cherish spa days, online shopping, long road trips, and researching creative ideas to engage my family. I genuinely look forward to being a part of your journey!
